First Amendment & Government Communications

First Amendment Compliance for Public Agencies — Online and On the Ground.

Government social media accounts raise evolving First Amendment and public forum issues — but they're not the only area where constitutional questions arise. Cities and public agencies also face challenges around facility use requests, expressive activity on government property, First Amendment audits, and public comment management. Sound Solutions Law helps agencies develop constitutionally defensible policies across all of these areas and provides practical, real-time guidance when issues arise.
